Reply to comment by dc5xo in Do local town cops have jurisdiction on Merritt or rt8 for example? I seems I only see State Police pulling people over. by Imispellalot

I live in Naugatuck and never seen Naugy cops on actual RT8. They are always hang out before the on ramp by Sunoco/cumbies.

They’ve gotten me by 25 more than once over the years. I questioned it of course and was told by CSP that NPD had jurisdiction on 8 as well, dates back to when 8 was just a bunch of small highways that weren’t connected yet. I’ve seen them pull people over too, they also got a friend for fake plates about 7 years ago right by 25

Naugatuck in the early 90s was actually cool if you don’t like being policed. I mean I was like 6 but I remember how it was to get off 25 with no bullshit cop car waiting for you along the ramp. Used to be dirt bikes, quads, hell even just normal BMX all over the wooded areas/water company lands and the cops never would bother anyone. Some dude that lived next door to me had his house filled with pot plants and the whole area just reeked and still no one cared. Ahh the good ol days.
